perhaps_o derive_v unto_o himself_o that_o honour_n yet_o the_o animosity_n that_o he_o have_v and_o do_v still_o express_v against_o spain_n and_o the_o house_n of_o austria_n will_v hinder_v he_o from_o be_v trust_v by_o they_o and_o the_o partiality_n that_o be_v discover_v in_o he_o towards_o bavaria_n and_o the_o catholic_n league_n will_v make_v he_o suspect_v by_o we_o this_o office_n will_v stand_v best_a with_o his_o majesty_n if_o he_o be_v not_o in_o a_o manner_n a_o party_n for_o although_o in_o this_o conjuncture_n he_o may_v interpose_v very_o opportune_o betwixt_o the_o

of_o the_o electorat_a &_o palatinate_n the_o other_o in_o regard_n of_o difference_n in_o religion_n the_o peace_n or_o truce_n in_o the_o low_a country_n will_v prove_v a_o knotty_a piece_n of_o

treaty_n with_o the_o low_a country_n last_o the_o duke_n of_o lorain_n have_v now_o with_o tilly_n the_o command_n of_o the_o imperial_a or_o catholic_n army_n it_o be_v likely_a that_o they_o will_v

of_o easy_a belief_n to_o approach_v near_o unto_o the_o point_n of_o accommodation_n consider_v that_o spain_n have_v undertake_v to_o dispose_v the_o emperor_n on_o the_o one_o side_n how_o real_a

quid_fw-la agendum_fw-la but_o before_o i_o enter_v upon_o that_o discourse_n i_o will_v in_o one_o word_n mrake_v quid_fw-la non_fw-la agendum_fw-la namely_o that_o we_o be_v careful_a above_o all_o

may_v be_v it_o be_v good_a to_o keep_v they_o up_o as_o long_o as_o they_o do_v do_v not_o amuse_v we_o and_o that_o we_o do_v not_o trust_v unto_o they_o but_o put_v in_o lucro_fw-la any_o benefit_n that_o may_v unexpected_o come_v by_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v very_o necessary_a to_o dispose_v the_o king_n of_o bohemia_n not_o to_o stir_v as_o yet_o nor_o to_o appear_v in_o
